    yes its every where, i had the 116 -113 to bradley but i was being generous due to the commentary which was damn right shite. I watched again and had it a point to Bradley. too much blindness given to pacs attacks , Bradley was making pac miss alot , granted Pac got the better punches in with his left and had Bradley rattled here and there, but in many rds Bradley controlled them for the 1st 2 minutes then pac would try and flurry, some shots hitting others missing alot too, it seemed in those rds many ignored Bradleys work like it never happened and gave Pac credit at the end, but i cant forget what had been.

    Bradley boxed better on the backfoot, but most are not giving Bradley much credit. Im no fan of Bradley infact i didnt rate him much at all, but last night he showed he can box. Pac also got more credit cos he hits harder, but hey he didnt box better overall. Just cos Bradleys punches werent as hard doesnt mean you turn a blind eye.

    After watching a 2nd time after rd7 i had 68-65 to Pac its the last 5 i gave to Bradley except 1 which i had as equal.
    Sometimes a champ like Pac is like fashion and all want part of it and believe it. I expect alot of shite back :bbb

    yes i expected you to be first, whatever dude, we already know we see things differently. Im just not gonna hide behind the majority. Cant all see it the same.

    Its more the 2nd half of the fight where i see things differently from most after 7 rds i had pac 3 pts up. then he just burned out or maybe he thought he was way ahead which is dangerous, if he had maintained from the 7th on i would have scored it by a much wider margin to pac.If it had gone that way id still give bradley credit as i thought he was just a headbutter, but he showed theres more to his game

    Says it all...

    ****ing ridiculous result, commentary or no commentary ... Pacquiao looked bored at times during the fight.

    I've about had it with the sport now, it's rotten to the core and I wouldn't surprised to find Arum behind all of this.

    Didn't score it. It was an immensely dull fight, but I had Abril comfortably in front despite his spoiling.

    I haven't seen your other posts on the topic. Did you think Manny was a wide winner?

    I still think Chisora-Helenius was worse, this is similar to the Pacquiao-Marquez 3 scoring but a bit worse.

    ditto. I respect your view dude, but we all disagree at times thats the beauty of the sport. Take Froch - Bute, Dwyer on youtube did a disgraceful post fight analysis i was pissed off like many. yet he had Bradley winning 6-5-1

    Dwyer just wants views recently I think, he seems to be getting worse.

    Na, given up listening to him after hearing him say something like DeGale could beat Ward and Broner could beat Mayweather like a year ago. Not sure if it was that but some ridiculous bollocks.
